Our Story
"Although I was born in Maine, I was raised in upstate New York. I joined the Merchant Marines in 1994 and spent the next twenty years traveling the world.
It was not until after I met my future wife in 2010, that I had ever considered leaving this work experience behind. In 2012, we were married and bought a beautiful home in Maryland. I found out very soon, one of life’s little truths, that I cannot be a successfully married man from twelve thousand miles away. Therefore, I retired from the Merchant Marines and began the next phase in my life.
It seemed like a natural transition to move from cooking on a ship to cooking for all my friends and family. From there, Full Belly Catering sprung to life and now my passion for food has moved from my kitchen table to your event.
At Full Belly Catering, our dedication to putting our clients’ needs first is our number one reason for success. We operate within an exceedingly respectable code of ethics; we tolerate nothing less.
Our operating credo is: 'Your clients don't care how much you know until they know how much you care.' We believe that taking a personal interest in each of our clients is mandatory."
-John Walsh, Chef / Owner, Full Belly Catering
